Well guess they locked our account down after the jewlrey store purchase because the sporting goods store wouldnt accept the card. Nothing more aggrevating than having some dumb blonde high school bitch talking down to you asking if we even had the money in there to cover it, I about fucking lost it, I wanted to smack that bitch around so bad haha.
Good thing our bank was right around the corner, came back to the store with the cash and paid.

Then just this week I recieved a disconnection notice from my server company for non payment, I was like WTF. Turned out we had made a major purchase the same day they tried to bill the card and it was declined.
I had the same thing happen with a debit card. I tried to use it over and over. It worked fine at an atm making a deposit but when I tried to use it, it always came back declined.

After months of using something else, I called the bank. They told me there was an unusual amount purchased at Amazon in November and December. Since that is my main Christmas shopping place, I thought it strange they would shut down the card. Especially since I have done the same thing every year.
